No worries! Element selectors are the enemy. If for whatever reason you would like to change the markup from an anchor tag (<a href="">reason</a>) to another tag, the element selector wouldn't work anymore. I've to admit the name of the class selector isn't quite useful but that doesn't matter for us right now, because we will rewrite a lot of stuff anyway. Now we just want to get rid of all the element selectors so we only have to care about classes.
